Short, 15 minutes long game that you are supposed to play multiple times with different choices, but outcome is always the same and story is nothing special either. Some parts of it are quite moving, mostly because of the music that's the best part of the whole game. It gets repetitive fast, but It's worth of few playthroughts.
It's almost exactly like EDF 3 & 4 with barely anything new other than the fact It's better optimized and runs better. And i'm not complaining, it has everything you'd expect from an EDF game. One big problem I have with these games is that there are never enough players and it's very difficult to find people to do the mission you need. Many of them are too difficult to do alone. Cross platform play and ability to join game in progress would help very much, but it's an EDF game and we can't have nice things like that. I think i'm skipping EDF 6.

This is what you get when you don't have boring licenced cars in your game, and licence holders telling you what you can do whit the cars. Total destruction, proper damage models and car parts flying in the air, filling the road with junk. This game made me realize how conservative, dull and boring our racing games are today, and having a licenced cars in every game is one of the main reasons why.

Beautiful, unique top-down hack & slash rpg with original battle system that requires some out-of-the-box thinking, but works really well once you get hang of it. You play as some insect-sized creature and your upgradeable flying vehicle. Story is small, simple and delightful. You don't have to save the whole world, witch is refreshing. Music is absolutely brilliant. This game deserves more attention.

I played this first time in 2022, and it's not easy to see what the fuss was all about when this was released. For somebody who starts playing this now it just feels like a physics tech demo for some outdated engine. Puzzles are very basic, and platforming feels archaic. Voice acting is just annoying and jokes that don't land are thrown at you all the time. Writing is bad, and it's a short game but it feels way too long.
If you are looking for PS3/360 era hidden gems, I'd recommend this game. Vastly understated game that was overlooked mainly because it's not open world, like overly popular Batman games were. Every game had to be open world at the time. This is more old school by design, with ok story, very good puzzles and much better fighting system than what Batman games had. It's one of the best superhero games out there.

It's Army of Two in space. You don't find Dead Space 1/2 here. It's all about shooting some generic dude-clones in a corridor from cover while talking some embarrassing shit with your dudebro friends. Isaac Clarke had some lobotomy done and there are no horrors anymore. It's a painfully boring, overly long, repetitive, shitty social game with simply nothing interesting going on, no reason to continue playing it. RIP Dead Space.

This game was generic, bland, unimaginative and repetitive cover shooter against generic clone enemies, but it still wasn't a big hit, witch was a great surprise. Main character was basically the same dude as in almost every other game at the time. This game had one creative thing going: an inversion mechanic that allowed you to flip the world upside down, but it was not utilized enough to make this game any special or to make it stand out.
Well, at least this game has a soul and personality. It's completely unique and there is no other game like it. That's quite an achievement. I enjoyed this game very much, it's not good but it's certainly worth experiencing. If you are bored with generic characters, conformistic stories and conservative sensitivity in modern games, this game may offer some relief and a breath of fresh air.

This is the worst fitness game PS3 had, and I have played them all. This Sony's very own product, their response to WII Fitness, so you'd expect this to be the best. The main problem here is their overconfidence to the move controller + camera combination. They expect the perfect precision from you, but move controller is just not perfectly precise in most home enviroments, especially when you are jumping around your room doing full-body workout.

This might be the worst Yakuza game I have played, but it's still extremely fun and 100% worth of a playthrough. I hope they remaster this game too, because it has more wasted potential than any other Yakuza game. It feels rushed, gameplay is broken in places, and it's not as good as it easily could be.

This game was praised and worsipped, so I was sure it has to be one excellent game. Just play one more hour, it's bound to get better. Take another hour and it's guaranteed to show it's brilliance. But it never got any better. Writing is just awful, and story is most embarrassing, generic stuff imaginable. Why the hell did I actually complete this?

Dead Space 2 is a downgrade from the first game in every regard except in length. First Dead Space was scary, pure horror, but this is mainly just a shooter with very little horror. Main character was easy to like in the first game, but here he has gained an ability to speak and story takes a major blow when you hear what he has to say. Isaac Clarke is a bit of asshole, whiny manbaby who ruins your immersion. Game is also a bit too long.
2013
Short and sweet top-down arcade racer with nicely balanced powerups and perfectly ridiculous physics. AI is always fair and it's all around a very good design. Only real complaint I have is that it's too short, but isn't that always the problem when your game is so ridiculously good?

First Destiny game offered just the basic fps gameplay and there was no time to explain anything or even start with the story. That's why everything was unknown, clouded with mystery and world was somewhat interesting. Destiny 2 on the other hand has all the time in the world to tell you a story, and it's all about moron manbabies fighting against another for manbabical reasons, and what ever facination world of Destiny had on the first game is now gone. If you have no story to tell, it's best to just shut up.
